Thanks to a busy session that saw Democrats pass a flurry of legislation, there’s a long list of new laws going into effect Monday. Among them are:

• Magazine limits: A law limits most gun ammunition magazines to 15 rounds. A federal hearing about the ammunition limits is scheduled for July 10 in Denver.

• Renewable energy: A new law requires rural electricity co-ops to double the amount of electricity they get from renewable sources by 2020.

• Marijuana safety: The state Department of Revenue, which will oversee pot regulation, must release detailed regulations on how the drug is grown and sold. One major detail the department must announce Monday is how marijuana should be tested for safety and potency before it can go on sale to the public Jan. 1.

• Crimes against pregnant women: Colorado joins other states with a felony crime of unlawful termination of a pregnancy.

• Job-seeker credit protection: Employers face new limits on accessing the credit history of job applicants.

• Career assistance: House Bill 1004 sets up a three-year grant program and a study of current labor-pool requirements and qualifications.
